UTG is a solid LAG-TAG over big sample size, nh wp man! =D

Poor MP must feel really sandwiched :/

I'm struggling to feel sorry for MP when every play he makes on every street is the wrong one! ;)

Nice hand though.

Afterthought - I guess I can't argue with his initial check on the river, its superior to betting!

Hey, GreenPiece! Thanks and good luck!

I had a sick 130 BB upswing today. It reminds me that 100 BB is nothing, absolutely nothing in FL SH...

200 BB is not even noteworthy. If I went a week without a 100 BB swing I would be freaked out. A 500BB downer is really irritating.

Great news from Full Tilt! I suppose that chapter in my poker career is over.

I took some shots at 2/4 with 500BB, today I managed to recover a bit from yesterday's setups :f_biggrin:

There seems to be even more fishy action at 3/6... and atm I can see a full 6max 5/10 table with 53% avg VPIP. Can't wait :f_p:

I've been watching some HU videos from Byron Jacobs lately, and I feel that my heads-up game is much stronger now. I need to improve this as much as I can because I start new tables all the time.

Re sweat: I've been pretty much snowed under watching/attending/voluteering at the Rugby World Cup for the last three weeks so haven't played much at all (and w/d some of my BR to pay for beers at the same time). That's dying down a bit so could be keen. Will hit you up if I'm about.

What the ??? Anyway, like your blog, seems you're totally crushing the 1/2. And have +500 BB's on 2/4, looks like an easy raise to me. GL to you!

The flop he might peel hoping for runner runner straight. After that, I wonder if he thinks he might be chopping? Or he just wants to see what you have. Or he doesn't like money.

Its so hard to get inside the head of a fish.

I'm quite sure he didn't know the rules of poker. About a week later I met him again, then he had learned the basics (hand strength I mean ).
